A few days since three girls, about sixteen years of iige, were arrested for robbing a man at a saloon in the viciniiy bl Merritoae street. The leader of the party, an intelligeht nnd very pretty girl, asked that a good lawyer be st-tit for, Haying she had plenty of money to pity the best of counsel. The names df -several legal g n-tlemen were mentioned", arid among others that of ad eminent criminal lawyer who resides in andther county, but has an of-Gee in Boston. She at once said she did not want him as she knew him. This attracted the curiosity of the officer to whom she had made the request, and he instituted inquiries about her, and learned that the girl was un orphan, and th lawyer whom she did hot want to see, her guardian, Imvirg charge of considerable property belonging to her in another city. She ran away a few weeks ago, and her whereabouts up to that time was not known. She came direct to this city, and haa frequented haunts of vice at the West End. She was taken before the Police Court, convicted of the robbery, and sentenced to the House of Correction six months. Subs, quently, upon learning something of her history, the Court revised her sentence, and the case waa continued, in order that plana may be adopted with a View of reselling her from a life of vice. Boston traveler. The Auburn (N. 7.

Charles left his wife and went to Jefferson City, where he contracted marriage with a second Udy. He passed tbe honeymoon with her, and journeyed to a small town in Schuyler county, where he married again. He was found out, tried arid sentenced to the State Prison for a term of years. On Thursday ihree 1-idies entered the Prison, separatt and unattended, and each inquired for CharltiS Haynes.

The execution was 'private,' only two hundred of the thousands of the persons who had gathered about the jail being admitted within the walls. Brust appeared upon the scaffold accorripuhied by his spiritual advisers, twoclergvmeh of the Lutheran Church-He appeared firm and resigned to his fate. After addressing the Spectators in broken English, and afterward in German, expressing his penitence for the crime he kad committed, and his belief that God had forgiven hint, he knelt down while one of the attendant Ministers prayed. When he arose a very slight trembling of his knees waa for a moment db'Bervable. The death warrant was then read; the rope placed about the condemned m-tii'i neck, and the tiap let fall. Brust died very easily, no movement of any kind being noticed for five minutes after the falling of the drop. Evils of f onsanguinous Marriages. The eVils arising from the intermnr riage of blood relations are very obvious, and their effects extremely alarming, and yet the law which ought to gotern (a law physiologically and divine asserted,) Is Very carelessly regarded. As an instance of the social criminality which attaches to the breach of that law we give the following statement of facts: A short time since, three small hoys were brought from their parents, now residing in Massachusetts, and placed id the poorhouse at Killingly, in this State, it being claimed that it was their home. These boys are utterly helpless, being id-ioi'c aqd invalid, and cannot stand or creep, and unless carefully secured, they will each fall from the chair they may be placed in. They are in a most hopoluss and helpless' condition, and it is believed are beyond the reach of medical aid, and must linger through a life of Sufi, ring and all on what account? Because their parents Were cousins, both scrofulous, and have inflicted that dreadful scourge on their children with fatal viiulehce. their nge nre from eight td twelve yearb'; and until they were suven years old, or there-aboti's, they were as bright and smart as most children; learned to read with dispatch, and Very active and happy indeed. But their organic physical disorder was not thus to be deprived of its natural Operation, and each fell a victim to its insidious power. Suddenly were they borne down by its ciushing weight, to a fate Worse than death; to the endurance of a life than which it would have been better had they never been birh.-- Connecticut paper. klLLRD IN FJrTEES MtNUtBS BT STRICtl- nInb WbiskKx A letter in ihe Baraboo Republic; dated at BeedsbUrg, Sauk county, Wis.; says': A matter of painful interest occurred in the town of trenton, about two miles South of this village; on Sunday evening last.

Mr. Lincoln at noma A correspondent of the Philadelphia North American thus describes Mr. Lincoln al home: As I yas rambling around Springfield, in tbe vicinity of Mr. Lincoln's home, I Sawa good-natured looking lady surrounded with a bevy of children, and plucking flowers in a garden close by, I inquired for Mr. Lincoln's residence. The lady turning round at the salutation, pointed out the bouse, and, with a singular naivete of expression, and with old-fashioned hospitality, said: "Won't jou walk in? you'll be welcome tbertl" I could not but be impressed with the unstudied reve lation of the true Republican simplicity of Ui. Lincoln's character, and of the neighborly cordiality which that character has naturally evoked. The home of ifr. Lincoln is a simple two-storied double frame house, on the corner of Eighth and Edward streets, a half dosen squares from the ruilroad depot. The dwelling which wears a Quaker tint of light brown, stands upon a plateau elevated three or four feet above side walk. On a brick foundation wall, rising to the level of the garden, is a neat paled fence, with handsome square posts, inclosing the front and tide of the property. A back building jijia8 the main edifice, and in the rear there is a large garden. There is no sign of pretention anywhere viable. The building is singularly quiet looking and cosy, just such a home as a sensible man in One of our sensible Pennsylvania towns would care tb enji.y. Mr. Lincoln's manner is in perfect keeping with these home surroundings, as I found on personal experience. Having been specially incited to his room in the fatate House, to "assist," as the French say, at the taking of his physiognomy by a Boston artist, Mr. Thomas M. Johnson, I had a capita', chance of studying his Sp-pearace and judging bf his character. The pictures which have been already published are but a slight remove from a broad caricature. Mr. Volk's bast gives the truest impression of the head and general bear- When MV. Lincoln is engaged in animated conversation, the play of the features is instinct with intelligence; the eye dilates with a generous radiance; the cheek bones cease to have anynoticeable prominence, and the mouth, which in the prints has been made a distressing feature, is full of character and expression'. Happening to ask Mr. Lincoln why it was that none of the artists had done him justice, he replied, with ahUmoroussmilt: "It is impbssible td get my graceful motions in that's the reason why nobe of the pictures are like mei" In his conversational language Mr. Lincoln gives abundant evidence of thorough sound sense and a ripentd experience. Ch publib questions he expressed himseif with an unreserved frankness. On European politics he talked with a familiarity which only close observation of pasting events could have imparted. The impression which he creates in the minds of all who come in contact with himi is that bf a self made, independent, honest thinker. He rists far above tbe politician; he is a Stranger to all the intrigues which hare cursed party politics; he id thoroughly imbued With the true el ements of statesmanship; and, in the highest and noblest sense he is a man.

A few days since three girls, about sixteen years of iige, were arrested for robbing a man at a saloon in the viciniiy bl Merritoae street. The leader of the party, an intelligeht nnd very pretty girl, asked that a good lawyer be st-tit for, Haying she had plenty of money to pity the best of counsel.

This attracted the curiosity of the officer to whom she had made the request, and he instituted inquiries about her, and learned that the girl was un orphan, and th lawyer whom she did hot want to see, her guardian, Imvirg charge of considerable property belonging to her in another city. She ran away a few weeks ago, and her whereabouts up to that time was not known. She came direct to this city, and haa frequented haunts of vice at the West End. She was taken before the Police Court, convicted of the robbery, and sentenced to the House of Correction six months.

When he arose a very slight trembling of his knees waa for a moment db'Bervable. The death warrant was then read; the rope placed about the condemned m-tii'i neck, and the tiap let fall.

The eVils arising from the intermnr riage of blood relations are very obvious, and their effects extremely alarming, and yet the law which ought to gotern (a law physiologically and divine asserted,) Is Very carelessly regarded. As an instance of the social criminality which attaches to the breach of that law we give the following statement of facts: A short time since, three small hoys were brought from their parents, now residing in Massachusetts, and placed id the poorhouse at Killingly, in this State, it being claimed that it was their home. These boys are utterly helpless, being id-ioi'c aqd invalid, and cannot stand or creep, and unless carefully secured, they will each fall from the chair they may be placed in. They are in a most hopoluss and helpless' condition, and it is believed are beyond the reach of medical aid, and must linger through a life of Sufi, ring and all on what account?

Mr. Lincoln at noma A correspondent of the Philadelphia North American thus describes Mr. Lincoln al home: As I yas rambling around Springfield, in tbe vicinity of Mr. Lincoln's home, I Sawa good-natured looking lady surrounded with a bevy of children, and plucking flowers in a garden close by, I inquired for Mr. Lincoln's residence. The lady turning round at the salutation, pointed out the bouse, and, with a singular naivete of expression, and with old-fashioned hospitality, said: "Won't jou walk in? you'll be welcome tbertl" I could not but be impressed with the unstudied reve lation of the true Republican simplicity of Ui. Lincoln's character, and of the neighborly cordiality which that character has naturally evoked. The home of ifr. Lincoln is a simple two-storied double frame house, on the corner of Eighth and Edward streets, a half dosen squares from the ruilroad depot. The dwelling which wears a Quaker tint of light brown, stands upon a plateau elevated three or four feet above side walk. On a brick foundation wall, rising to the level of the garden, is a neat paled fence, with handsome square posts, inclosing the front and tide of the property. A back building jijia8 the main edifice, and in the rear there is a large garden. There is no sign of pretention anywhere viable. The building is singularly quiet looking and cosy, just such a home as a sensible man in One of our sensible Pennsylvania towns would care tb enji.y. Mr. Lincoln's manner is in perfect keeping with these home surroundings, as I found on personal experience. Having been specially incited to his room in the fatate House, to "assist," as the French say, at the taking of his physiognomy by a Boston artist, Mr. Thomas M. Johnson, I had a capita', chance of studying his Sp-pearace and judging bf his character. The pictures which have been already published are but a slight remove from a broad caricature. Mr. Volk's bast gives the truest impression of the head and general bear- When MV. Lincoln is engaged in animated conversation, the play of the features is instinct with intelligence; the eye dilates with a generous radiance; the cheek bones cease to have anynoticeable prominence, and the mouth, which in the prints has been made a distressing feature, is full of character and expression'. Happening to ask Mr. Lincoln why it was that none of the artists had done him justice, he replied, with ahUmoroussmilt: "It is impbssible td get my graceful motions in that's the reason why nobe of the pictures are like mei" In his conversational language Mr. Lincoln gives abundant evidence of thorough sound sense and a ripentd experience. Ch publib questions he expressed himseif with an unreserved frankness. On European politics he talked with a familiarity which only close observation of pasting events could have imparted. The impression which he creates in the minds of all who come in contact with himi is that bf a self made, independent, honest thinker. He rists far above tbe politician; he is a Stranger to all the intrigues which hare cursed party politics; he id thoroughly imbued With the true el ements of statesmanship; and, in the highest and noblest sense he is a man.
